Barbarous Russian Soldiers.

He is, under ordinary circumstances,
soft-hearted, good-natured fellow,
but there are savage instincts in his
semi-barbarous nature which render
him capable of almost any brutality, if
he is once thoroughly excited, says
writer on the Russian soldier in Black
goods Magazine. The awful atroai
ties committed during the late persecu-
tions of the Jews are still fresh in or
minds. and bear witness to the savagery
OF the Russian peasant, and the treat
ment experienced by the Turcomans,
both after the capture of Khiva and the
fall of Geek Tepe, show that, at all
events in Asia, the authorities even en-
courage the worst passions of the
soldier. Perhaps Skobelett's greatest
quality as successful General was his
thorough appreciation of the peculiar
tiles of the men he commanded. He
had wonderful hold on their sympa-
thies, and he enjoyed popularity with
the rank and file such as no other
Russian General has ever acquired. 1t
was Skobeletf who conducted the pl1r-
suit and harrying of the wretched Yo-
mud Turcomans after Khiva, so wildly
described by his friend and admirer,
the American correspondent MacGa-
han; and it was Skobeleff who, after
the storming OF Geek Tepe and the
rout of its brave Tekke defenders, gave
twenty four hours complete liberty to
his excited soldiers to work their wicked
will on the persons and property of the
defenseless families of the dispersed
Turcomans. Shobeleff thoroughly I'M
derstood his men, and re-establisled
his control as deliberately as he per
mitted unbr.dled license. For exact Y
twenty-four hours the captors of Cock
Tepe were uncontrolled; within SIX
hours of the termination OF that period
two soldiers We're shot for trihino
crimes. Tn circumstance, coupled
with the fact of Skobeleff's great popu-
larityy in the army, G YES a str king in
dlcatlon OF the character Of the Russian
soldier. as Judged by the man who
knew him best.

WOMEN LEADERS.
Origin of the Female Suffrage Move
ment and Sketches Of Its
Advocates.
Some Prominent Women Who Have
Won Consideration for
the Cause.

Every year the subject of woman suffrage
attracts more attention rs the agitation of
it grows more earnest and widespread.
The first woman who ever offered her vote
at the polls was Marilla M. Kicker, Of
Dover, n. H., dashing young widow Of
wealth and prominence. She fascinated
one of the election committee and, as no
objection was made to her registration, she
exacted promise from the love-lorn COM
mitteeman that he would place her name
on the check book. But he failed
to do it, and when the lady presented
herself at the polls next day she
was told that her name could not be found
on the book. The first woman I'd vote was
Nannetta B. Gardner. of Detroit, Mich.
She registered her name in that city March
%, 1871, and month later voted unques-
toned. Emboldened by her example. the
same year Mrs. Sara Spencer and Sarah
E. Webster, with seventy other women OF
Washington, marched in a body to the
polls and demanded to be allowed to vote.
But they were refused, as they had been
refused registration. They Immediately
took steps to prosecute the Board of In
spectors, and suit was brought in the SUI
preme Court of the District in general
term, and an interesting trial followed, but
with no result of importance to ether side
of the question.

for the rough and tumble sort of an exist
ence she was to go through with. The
father, though man of wealth, trained
his girls as we'll as boys to honest self
support. Accordingly Susan chose the
profession of teacher and followed the
career for fifteen years. About two years
after Mrs. Stanton called the first woman
convention Miss Anthony became con-
vert and fully identified herself with the
movement. For forty years she has been
one of it's most prominent opponents, hav-
ing during that time made speeches per-
haps, in every town of Importance in the
United States. One of the most exciting
incidents in her varied career occurred in
1872, when she tested her right to veto
urder the fourteenth amendment and cast
vote in the Presidential election. For
this otfense she was arrested, but
appealed for writ of habeas corpus.
obliging counsel gave bonds. But this
not only kept her out of jail, but also kept
her case out of the Supreme Court and the
trial was held atthe State Court in Roches-
ter. The Judge, after hearing arguments,
refused to give the case to the jury and
made the decision himself. The prisoner
will stand up" Miss Anthony arose. "The
sentence of the court is that you pay a fine
of 500 and the costs of the prosecution.
May it please your Honor, answered
the irate Susan, Il will not pay dollar OF
your unjust penalty"

the constitutional right of woman to run
for Office. This aroused some discussion
at the time, and many people were sur
prised to learn that while women could not
vote they We're eligible to any office within
the gift of the people. Soon after running
for Congress Mrs. Stanton was at q recep
ton in Washington, at the residence of the
late Schuyler Colfax, and he rallied Mrs.
Stanton on her defeat, regretting that, as
Speaker of the House, he had never had
the pleasure Of recognizing "the lady from
New York" Hon. William D. Kelley, who
was standing near, remarked, by way Of
consolation: "There is still hope for Mrs.
Stanton. She received the same number
of votes that I did the first time
| ran for Congress (2,4OOr, the only
difference being, her ciphers we're on the
wrong side (O,024)." AS will be seen by the
portrait, Mrs. Stanton is notably fine-look-
ing; in any crowded assembly she would
command attention, and people would ask
to know who she was. Her home life. in
spite of the pre- conceived ideas that most
people have formed about strong minded
woman, is delightful and happy. She is
the mother Of five sons and two daughters,

the woman's rights doctrine living are,
perhaps, Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton and
Miss Susan B. Anthony. These two ladies
are about equal in age, but of the most OPP
posite characteristics, and illustrate the
theory of counterparts in affection by en-
tertaining for each other friendship of
extraordinary strength. Mrs. Stanton is a
smooth and polished writer. but poor
organizer and manager. Miss Anthony,
on the other hand, is thorough organizer
but poor writer.
No doubt large share of the honor that
would go to the originator of the woman's
suffrage movement belongs to Elizabeth
Cady Stanton. She was born Nov. 10,
1916, at Johnstown, N. Y; her father be-
ing Judge Daniel Cady, distinguished
jurist of that State.
At the November election in 1856, in the
Eighth District of New York, she nominated
herself for Congress in order TO test

for the nearest doctors Office and took

This was done in an instant, and the
doctor left. He had hardly got out of

to laugh again and dislocated the jaw a
second time. The young man who had
gone to summon the doctor then es-
sayed to set it, and, as result he dis
located the other side. He grew more
frightened than ever and rushed of a

The initial steps have been taken
for constructing Russia iron mill at
Freeport, q little town about thirty
miles north of Pittsburgh. Farley Al
den, member of the firm of w. 81.
Rogers & Co., who will build the iron
works, said to a Pittsburgh exporter
few days ago: "This will lie the first
| Russia iron mill ever built outside of
Siberia. An imitation of Russia iron
has been made in this country for
some time. but not impervious to rust
lmperviousness to rust is the test of
genuine Russia iron. Few persons
imagine what risk was run in learn
ing the secret of the treatment by
which Russia iron is made. There are
only three people outside of Russia to-
day who know this secret. They are
William Rogers, w. H. Rogers, his
son, and Mr.. Nichol, q nephew of
William Rogers. About eighteen years
ago William Rogers was sent out as
Pennsylvania State Geologist to Rus
STA. He had credentials addressed to
Ex-Governor Curtin. the Minister at
ST. Petersburg at that time. AS long
as he confined his explorations to the
mines he attracted little or no sus-
picion, but as soon as he set his foot
inside the iron mills of Princess Demi-
dorff he was subjected to the most vigi-
liant espionage. It must be remem.
bered that the men in the mills who
know the secret of making Russia iron
are never allowed to quit the mills.
With the special study he had made of
iron making before going to Russia, he
was not long in discerning the much
coveted secret, though he had much
trouble to evade suspicion. Had he
been detected he would have been
forced to remain in Siberia the rest of
his life"
